I am a first time mum to DS who is 4 months old. He was born prematurely and is BF and still feeding every 2 hours. It’s been tough as my other half is not supportive and we argue lots. Recently he has said that I need to start leaving the baby with him more and that it’s a sign of PND that I don’t want to leave DS.
I have left him for a couple of hours on one occasion but have no desire to be away from him. I say I would like time for a bath and a nap without having to go out and he says it’s not healthy that I don’t want to leave my son.
I guess I would like to know if it’s worrying that I don’t want to leave the baby yet. At what point should I worry that it’s not healthy wanting to be with him all the time?
